			 <p class="intro">ACovPepDB is a comprehensive peptides database of anti-coronavirus peptides, which contains 518 enrties with 214 unique ACovPs manually extracted from research articles and public databases.</p>
			
                <h2>Introduction</h2>
                </br>
                <p class= "intro">The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is triggered by a novel coronavirus called Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (2019-nCoV) (SARS-CoV-2). COVID-19 has become a global public health major event, causing an indelible impact on the global economy and human lives and health.Whether it is the SARS-CoV in 2003 or the MERS-CoV in 2012, it has brought a great crisis to our lives. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a family of compounds that have inhibitory effects on various types of microbial pathogens. Part of peptides in AMPs are able to inhibit coronaviruses. These peptides are called anti-coronavirus peptides (ACovPs). Actually, copious scientists have devoted themselves to the identification and design of AMPs. Simultaneously, several AMP databases have been built and widely used in relevant scientific research. </p>
                <p class="intro">We developed the first database tailored for ACovPs storage and management, called ACovPepDB, which stored 214 unique ACovPs with 518 entries from published peer-reviewed articles and public databases. ACovPepDB is freely accessed online without registration. All of the ACovPs dataset as well as target domain dataset could be downloaded. This database is considered valuable in consolidating understanding of ACovPs and serves as a comprehensive resource for coordinating efforts to improve the discovery of novel ACovPs and promote data mining in bioinformatics.</p>
